A PALACE BURNED.
THE so CALLED SPIRFTEfL PHE-
NOAENI.

There is FIRST cause, and intermediate
their legitimate effects. While we admit that
there is influence of mind over mind we deny
that mind has any power over matter except
by physical or mechanical means. We also
admit that animate bodies are possessed of an
electric or magnetic force-some more than
others-which they exert over other bodies
either animate or inanimate but more especially
over sentient beings and particularly the cred
ulous. But what those practice who claim to
be clarivoyants, mediums etc., by bringing to
view spirits of the departed stmaterialized, .
conyersing with the dead, prohesying ETC., we
consider fiction and an imposition upon the
creduhty of mankind. Many who participate
lose SO much nerve and vital electricity that
their nerves relax and their physical system
emaciates, their intellect becomes impaired,
succeeded by insanity and death. Those per
formers at seances claim by spiritualistic influ-
ence to produce wonderful and miraculous re-
suits, but they seldom agree about the same
thing. They claim TO be laboring in the
cause Of humanity and intellectual develop
ment. If be true that spirits of the dead re-
turn TO converse with us, it is strange that we
should be left to learn from observation and
experience. Why did they leave the human
family to grovel In darkness, ignorance and
superstition so long? Why don't they tell
us something about the rings and satalites Of
saturn, about the sun, the auroraborealis, the
comets etc1 Why don't they tell poor miner
where to find mineral? Why don't they tell
us how TO avoid difficulty and calamity Why
don't they tell the poor widow how to procure
bread for her starving children If they can
materialize physical bodies why don't they
matcrialize homes for the homeless, and food
for the starvinga Because they cannot. There
is such thing as premonition of mind and
physical warning of impending danger by in
fluence of the living upon the living. Also
the influence of many who have lived is reall-
| zed many years, yea many centuries after they
have lived, but they left relics of what they
accomplished. The true psychological OF
spiritualistic view of this is (if you please to
call it so is we have gradually evolved from
lower to higher metaphysical and intellect
ual state through the trials, observation and
experience Of those who have preceded us.

BURGLAR BALKED BY DoG.-About o: 20
Monday night an attempt to rob the residence
OF Mr.. Baughman, who lives at the corner of
First and Woods streets, South Portland was
frustrated by his Newfoundland dog. The
burgler entered the front gate, passed through
another gate leading TO the rear yard, and
walked toward the summer kitchen. There
were two steps to descend, and as Mr.. Bur-
gler went down he stepped upon the dog, who
was sleeping. The next instant the burglar
lay PROSTATE, and the dog had him by the
breast. Mrs. Baugbman, who was alone in
the house, hearing the noise ran out. The
thief begged piteously to be rescued, bu. Mrs.
Baughman was not strong enough 10 pull off
the dog, he being very large animal, weigh
ing over 100 pounds, and very savage when
necessity requires. The lady ran to a neigh
Dor for assistance, and when she returned the
he burgler had made his escape. leaving a
piece Of his coat and several blood stains as
souvenirs Of his xisit. Mrs. Baughman states
that she would be able 10 recognize the man
if she ever saw him again. Unfortunately
the dog was chained else he would probably
have killed the man, or at least wounded him
so badly that he could not have escaped
